CNBC reporter poses real possibility the ‘US President is collaborating on cover-up of a murder’

CNBC political reporter John Harwood goes there and I believe rightly so.

According to the Washington Post, the Trump administration and the Saudis are scheming to come up with an excuse for the murder of journalist Jamal Khashoggi:

The Trump administration and the Saudi royal family are searching for a mutually agreeable explanation for the death of journalist Jamal Khashoggi — one that will avoid implicating Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, who is among the president’s closest foreign allies, according to analysts and officials in multiple countries.

But it will be difficult for the young ruler to escape scrutiny, as mounting evidence points not only to the Saudi government’s knowledge of Khashoggi’s fate, but also to a connection by Mohammed to his disappearance.
